nubbins`: i actually am sorry the forum crashed
mircea_popescu: his "fu guise i'm going home" megapost looks like it had outside help
nubbins`: i'm in a position where this sort of thing doesn't really hinder my productivity
mircea_popescu: but something i definitely respect.
nubbins`: can't say that pr's personal responsibility post wasn't clattering around the back of my mind while i was making rube jerky
thestringpuller: Or maybe i dunno. may not be smart enough for you but certain dialogue in it makes me think of trilema
mircea_popescu: no idea why, but i'll grant it's shorter, so.
decimation: I had a friend who grew up around actual black people working in the fields in the south circa ~1960; they were called niggers and called themselves niggers without offense
mircea_popescu: what, i can't take a libertard word and redefine it to cash in on their investment ?
decimation: nubbins`: yeah I wonder what state he lives in
nubbins`: how do i still have so many o.O
nubbins`: i can't even keep track of what casascius coins i have right now
asciilifeform: i was actually going to suggest that ben_vulpes et. al. run an ntp server.

decimation: at any rate, "arch linux arm" officially supports their port on the pogoplug I gather
pete_dushenski: goddamit i barely trust anything a macbook air does
asciilifeform: i'll point out that it is not necessary to use the uart on pogo unless you seriously botch the install.
pete_dushenski: i've never trusted apple bluetooth
asciilifeform: decimation: i think i linked the photo here. at any rate the uart is plain as daylight on this board.
mircea_popescu: i kinda like breaking kbds.
decimation: yeah I would say that the unicomp strikes me as 'plastic-y'
asciilifeform: decimation: the two habitual mac users i work with just threw out their unicomps (i think they were..) and bought actual 'model m' each.
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah I use unicomp because mac
mircea_popescu: the latter point, i bet.
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: what i utterly fail to grasp is why the 'unicomp' is even a thing, when actual 'model m' can be had for 20-50 usd. in working condition (if perhaps in need of a bath)
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: i'm hardly a power user so i hope mine lasts longer than that

TomServo: asciilifeform: I was just trying to decide which is worse.
mircea_popescu: i bet that's a magistrate "judge" too.
mircea_popescu: Judge Raymond Moore handed down a four-year sentence, but announced from the bench that she needs psychiatric help. "I'm not saying that her decisions were all a product of mental illness... But she's a bit of a mess," said the judge. "She has no history in the criminal justice system. She is very young.... Teenagers make dumb decisions a lot."
TomServo: I'm left wondering.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron: << handcrafted coffee now? << this actually is a thing. I've had it in CR. It looks say like : http://trilema.com/2011/chestii-pe-care-mi-le-doresc-dar-nu-le-voi-putea-gasi-niciodata/

mircea_popescu: !rate Blazedout419 -1 I suspect, without it being in any sense proven, that he was involved in "managing the brand" of the woodcollector fraudster. See http://trilema.com/2015/the-strange-case-of-the-woodcollector-and-other-stories/
mircea_popescu: "There are some really great people here on the forum, and some of you i really like and enjoy talking with like Blazedout and OgNasty and TookDK"
mircea_popescu: "There are all of 3 people on this forum who know who i really am, and every one of them would not sell that secret for $100,000 because they have a vested interest in keeping the secret. What i am is why you will never find out. I am, in fact a world famous artist, my pieces have been in the Smithsonian on exhibit at the Louvre and in the home of pompous wealthy people the world over."
assbot: I'll pay for your tits pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1CnVtLn )

asciilifeform: somehow i escaped knowing of this.
mircea_popescu: i had no idea
asciilifeform: same hardware, incidentally, with different silkscreen on chassis and, naturally, different rom image (it's on their site, i won't bother linking to it, who the fuck cares)
mircea_popescu: i've seen cost cutting to the bone implemented as "let's make it out of mud"
asciilifeform: as i understand, this is simply cost-cutting to the bone.
mircea_popescu: i want to send them a woman in a large chocolate egg.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes, mod6, jurov, mircea_popescu: bsd not fully optimal on the little machine; presently i have it with a linux 2.6.31 kernel, lightly patched
mircea_popescu: mats: id imagine a feminist would approve of such female empowering tech << i approve, at least prima facie. and im pretty sure im the last feminist alive.
mircea_popescu: it sounds exactly like the way i have been getting cunt the past coupla decades, ie, via the female wot, just somehow opened up to the general public.
thestringpuller: i'm limited to post coital napping.
mats: im doing post coital malware analysis and i dont think ive ever been more high on anything ever

asciilifeform: half what i'm seeing is a link to nowhere
jurov: asciilifeform: fixed, CMerkleBlock isn't supposed to be in 0.5.3 but i have put there newer cpp files by mistake
asciilifeform: i'd suggest sticking a simple status display (blocks synched, connection count) on port 80.
asciilifeform: i.e. is user expecting an interface of some kind? or just running a node for the warm emotions
mircea_popescu: i blame undressen horowitz and paul graham and fucking bill gates. that's who i blame.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` you know in retrospect, i don't actually blame the woodcarver idiot. he's just some monkey doing what he should be doing : monkeying.
ben_vulpes: man i gotta get better at telling stories.
punkman: hanbot, oic what you mean. I don't know much about lasers, but I think focus adjustment wouldn't help for the vase example.
asciilifeform: jurov: http://btc.yt/lxr/ident?_i=CMerkleBlock << e.g., this, is probably not supposed to happen. (click on identified, finds nothing.)
hanbot: i imagine what you mean is that the cheapo laser has fixed distance focus. then it would cut on a spheric surface not really a cartesian plane.
danielpbarron: i bet he did the engraving on a disc and cut the B out after

ben_vulpes: i'm looking forward to anal stretching tomorrow
